Glacier Ridge Chalet is a two story style home, built on an acreage on Hudson's Bay Divide Ridge overlooking St. Mary Lake. The chalet is positioned on a scenic overlook point on land settled by Jack Wagner in early 1900’s and is based on a private 180 acre land parcel.

This home is one of the most unique hand crafted dwellings in the Babb/St. Mary area. Amazing local wildlife that will make it feel like your own private zoo. The highlight is a hot tub with a 270° view of Glacier Park, the Rockies and Chief Mountain and dark sky for star gazing and contemplation.

The area is a wildlife corridor with elk, deer, moose, horses, and bear frequently observed right outside your door, from the hot tub or the over-sized fire pit area. This is a great venue for a peaceful vacation or for multiple families to connect.

The Glacier Ridge chalet has 3 rooms that can sleep 8. The downstairs bedrooms have twin bunks over the lower queen beds. The chalet is child friendly and situated completely off leash. There is a sofa and air mattress which sleeps 2 more.

The upstairs area is handcrafted wood with ample seating for all guests with 300° of window expanse that allows viewing of the entire Babb/St. Mary area. There is a small upper deck for animal viewing and star gazing. The chalet is located in a Dark Sky zone allowing for incredible start gazing and occasional viewing of the Northern Lights to the North in late summer through the fall.

Glacier Ridge is 1 km down a private road from the renowned Duck Lake Lodge. The lodge offers a full restaurant, pizza oven and road house bar with local entertainment a few nights during the week. Glacier Ridge is located 5 km outside of Babb and 12 km outside of St. Mary. Cellular coverage is by both Verizon, Rogers and limited AT&T networks.

The Chalet is on the West side of Divide Ridge and overlooks the West Rockies. Spectacular Sunset viewing location.

    It was beautiful! Everything just as described. There were a lot of dead flies around but I guess it’s the season. The woodwork was amazing. Enjoyed the hot tub under the stars.

    Beautiful surroundings. Views of the park and surrounding area are incredible. Only complaint is that the listing claims the two top bunks are big enough to sleep 2 people each but that is unrealistic even for kids.

    This property is amazing & the host is phenomenal. We loved staying on the east side of Glacier because every area of the park, as well as Waterton Lakes was way more accessible. The property is exactly as advertised & the host does a fantastic job on helping you get to the location, as well as helpful tips for your visit. If you’re going to Glacier you’ll find it hard to land a better spot than this. 10/10 & we hope to visit again sometime soon.

    My son was married in Glacier at Sun Point in early June. We were looking for a location for a home base for 17 people and rented Glacier Ridge, Quarry, Outlook and Quarry and were very happy with our decision. It provided us privacy yet we were able to spend the evenings together outside of Glacier Ridge around the fire. All of the houses were well stocked. Quarry served as our main host house. The bride and women got ready upstairs in Quarry the day of the wedding. The first look pictures were beautiful outside with the mountains in the background. We ordered pizza from Rising Sun one night and it was very good. We ordered a whole Huckleberry pie from Two sisters and enjoyed it also. We used the grill alot. The neighbors horses made an appearance at sunset and we were able to get some great photos. The East Side did not disappoint with lots of wildlife in the park and some on the host’s property. The property was close to both the St Mary and Many Glacier entrance. The location is gorgeous and we all enjoyed staying in the homes.

    The pictures don't do this justice. The views are incredible, we spent a lot of time on the porch, hot tub and fire pit enjoying the awesome views. The interior worked out great for the 6 of us. The upstairs living room(seating area) is spectacular. The location worked out well for us providing access to two of the entrances to Glacier National Park.

    We loved this house as our base for the Many Glacier and St Mary entrances into Glacier NP. After strenuous morning hikes, it was wonderful to come back to the house and relax in the hot tub watching the sunset. We would love to stay here again!

    We would 100% stay here again when visiting GNP and were sad to leave! It's super convenient to get to the Many Glacier area of GNP from here and the property itself is gorgeous. We had a black bear visit us one morning & deer every evening. Jon is an incredibly welcoming host and the beautiful house has everything you could possibly need and more. The views from the living room & upstairs bedroom were incredible. The only thing to be aware of (if this is something that would bother you) is that when we visited in early August, there were quite a few moths in the home which is something the host said he does his best to address but is tough to do in a cabin. We didn't care but thought I should mention it in case someone is sensitive to bugs. But honestly, other than that minor thing, the cabin is awesome and I'd absolutely recommend it!

    My now wife and I honeymooned here, it was the perfect stay! Great view of the mountains, wonderful spending time in the hot tub after long days of hiking. Great location in relation to Glacier National Park! Plus some awesome restaurants very close by! Would definitely recommend this spot to anyone!

    Love the house and the quietness of the location. 35 minutes to Many Glacier and 10 minutes to St Mary’s. The house is a great place to recover after hiking. Grill worked great and lots of area to prepare your own meals. Really enjoyed our stay!

    We stayed last week at this cabin and I’m not sure what I was expecting but it exceeded that ten fold. The views from inside and out of the cabin are amazing. Driving up to the property I couldn’t believe the views and it only got better from there. The host was friendly, respectful, and a joy. Cabin had anything you could need. East glacier is where we would stay any future trips and will try for this cabin every time. Peaceful, beautiful, and magical. I can’t say enough great things!

    We needed a one-night VRBO for our family on the east side of Glacier. We found this cabin listed, and it was perfect. The setting is great for access to St. Mary Visitor Center and Many Glacier, and the cabin was perfect for our group of 10. (Just a warning to anyone on the east side of Glacier during the off-season. There are limited amenities and stores; food tends to be limited and expensive, so plan ahead.)
